Today’s Lakers wouldn’t be today’s Lakers if Kobe Bryant wasn’t on hand to help pitch to the most wanted free agent. In this case it’s Carmelo Anthony and the Lakers have some work to do considering the royal boot licking Houston gave to Melo.
According to CBS Sports Kobe will be there to help pitch to free agent Carmelo Anthony today.
Kobe Bryant flew in Wednesday night from a vacation in Europe to participate in the Lakers’ pitch to Carmelo. Bryant and Anthony are friends and the Lakers are hoping to have that help convince Melo he should help the Lakers rebuild into a playoff team.
At this point I have no idea where Melo will go. The work that the other teams went through to sway Melo is crazy. It’s up in the air at this point.
